Reading Kojin Karatani’s The Structure of World History

Daniel Avatar

Readers of this blog are invited to join me and my good friend Gabriel Tupinambá for a facilitated reading group on one of the most important Marxist philosophers of our time, Kojin Karatani and his work The Structure of World History: From Modes of Production to Modes of Exchange.

This reading group will include six two-hour sessions by Zoom every Monday evening from 7 – 9 pm EST time starting July 6th. We will read The Structure of World History over six weeks in sequential order and will additionally consider excerpts from Karatani’s other work including Transcritique and his work on psychoanalysis. Each session will be led by a presenter who will guide the discussion amongst the group.

In partnership with the Circle of Studies of Idea and Ideology
